Winter Wonderland Wholefood Night Markets
A snow-filled winter wonderland in the Grounds of Alexandria — complete with vegan s'mores.
Overview
Heads up wellness junkies, superfood latte purveyors and plant-based peeps: a snow-filled winter market is coming to the Grounds of Alexandria. And it'll be stocked with vegan s'mores, hot wine and many (many) more healthy(ish) winter treats.
The night will be a mash-up of a wholefood market and a winter wonderland. You'll be able to explore a snow-filled arena, sip organic mulled wine and toast vegan s'mores (yes, vegan s'mores) over a fire pit. Or, fill up a mug at the colourful superfood latte fountain then visit the olive barn to watch olive leaves being turned into olive oil.
Apparently you can also exercise and have your smoothie, too — warm up on the smoothie bicycle and blitz your very own healthy smoothie via a pedal-powered blender. Enjoy a healthy woodfired pizza while you sip on a healthy cocktail, but don't fill up just yet — there'll be a host of laneway carts and market stalls offering product samplings and tastings under the fairy lights.
Peanut butter fiends can find the 'world's best PB' (apparently), or you can just sip on multicoloured lattes and taste healthy curries. If you're trying to cut back on the alcohol, good news — there'll even be an alcohol-free gin. After you've got your fill, head to the cooking and demonstration theatre to listen to a talk or cooking demo from a line-up of health and wellbeing gurus.
The market is thanks to GoodnessMe Box, a monthly subscription box filled with delicious health foods and samples to try, which has partnered with the inner-city food hot-spot to bring the event back for its second year.
You can snag your early-bird ticket here, which includes entry as well as a GoodnessMe box to take home — offering a delicious range of tried-and-tested, natural products.
The Winter Wonderland Wholefood Night Markets is open from 5.30–7.45pm and 7.45–10.30pm.
